if our coaching is consistently bad, even after constant annual turnover you have to look a little deeper, who's hiring/approving or influencing who's being hired?

You're being stupid here mate. If O is supposedly one of the best recruiters in the business you reload, not rebuild. After 21 went pro in 2020 there's adjustments but it shouldn't be a 5-5 team. No way no how with supposedly one of the best recruiters in the business. Look at the gumpers. 5 FIRST ROUND draft picks from their offense and they look just as good without them.

Any coach who doesn't have LSU in the top 5 year in year out with the talent you recruit is a shitty coach..Plain and simple, there's really no debate.



LSU only has two coaches in it's entire history with more than one season of a top 5 ranking in either major ranking service. No Saban is not one of them.

Paul Dietzel with 3 1958, 1959, 1961
Les Miles with 4 in 11 years, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2011

Coaches who had only 1
Bernie Moore-1936
Mike Archer-1987
Nick Saban-2003

I think everyone who's paid attention over the past 10 years knows this is true. I've thought this team should be a perennial top 5/NY6 team since before Miles' decline. It just stings a little more knowing people who aren't fans believe the same thing.

it doesn't take being part of a fan base to realize this, we are the butt of cfb jokes right now, and typically are for squandering the talent that runs through our program year in and year out

That's such a bullshite argument, but I suppose it's the only ones the O lovers have left. The head coach is 100% responsible for hiring his staff. The AD is 100% responsible for hiring the head coach.

Don't try to spin the blame of failed coordinators off on anybody else.

He said he didn't INTERVIEW Pelini. He also said, had he interviewed him, he would have still hired him.

That does not equal O isn't hiring his coordinators.

I know exactly what you were alluding to. You are looking to shift the blame off of O for shitty coordinator hire after shitty coordinator hire, and place it on someone else. That's what idiots like you do.

You know you can't respond to the shitty take you had anymore when this is what you have to resort to.

Silly? Yeah, you’re right, suggesting that whoever makes coaching hires, be it the AD or the HC, should be held responsible/accountable is pretty outrageous.

Except that wasn't what you did. You suggested the AD made a hire the HC made and tried to shift the blame from the HC to the AD.

As evidenced by the snippet below

quote:

quote:

He said he didn't INTERVIEW Pelini. He also said, had he interviewed him, he would have still hired him.

That does not equal O isn't hiring his coordinators.



I'll go further than the poster did, though the implication is there. If O said "he would have still hired him" if he had interviewed him sounds like he is the one who hired him. It doesn't make it sound like anyone else did in any way whatso ever.

Continue to try to deflect.
